Answer:
34.5
Step-by-step explanation:
17 + 70/x when x = 14.
substitute x for 14
17 + 70/4
17 + 17.5
34.5
Y1 is the simplest parabola. Its vertex is at (0,0) and it passes thru (2,4). This is enough info to conclude that y1 = x^2.
y4, the lower red graph, is a bit more of a challenge. We can easily identify its vertex, which is (-4,0), and several points on the grah, such as (2,-3).
Let's try this: assume that the general equation for a parabola is
y-k = a(x-h)^2, where (h,k) is the vertex. Subst. the known values,
-3-(-4) = a(2-0)^2. Then 1 = a(2)^2, or 1 = 4a, or a = 1/4.
The equation of parabola y4 is y+4 = (1/4)x^2
Or you could elim. the fraction and write the eqn as 4y+16=x^2, or
4y = x^2-16, or y = (1/4)x - 4. Take your pick! Hope this helps you find "a" for the other parabolas.
Answer:
5 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
(2 1/4) / x = (1 1/2) / (3 3/5)
so
x = (2 1/4) * (3 3/5) / (1 1/2)
